We are building that setup.  We will have the first part of the offsite
library in place for testing around April.  We will only be 3KM away,
but there are not many 3k wide tornados...

Subject: [ADSM-L] Offsite library via fiber

We're thinking of a TSM upgrade that would include a VTL onsite library
and an IBM 3584 library for copy pool tape. We would locate the 3584 in
our offsite storage location and access it via fiber. The tapes would
remain in the 3584 since they would already be offsite.

Anyone have any experience with a setup like this?
